The migration to Bndtools is coming along nicely. Both the server and target are running, and
we have all unit and integration tests working. One of the next steps is to provide a better
overview in Eclipse by merging some related bundles into one project. The rationale is that
at development time, we want to provide a "development view" of the project that helps developers
when they're working on the codebase. In my opinion, and according to the "4+1 view" [1],
this does not necessarly mean that this "development view" is the same as the "deployment
view". In other words, there is no need to maintain a 1 on 1 mapping between a project in
the development view and a bundle in the deployment view.
Therefore we (I worked on this list with Jan Willem) propose to merge some of the projects
to go from about 90 to about 30 projects (which gives a better overview in Eclipse). You should
read this list as follows. The first line is the project name, any next (indented) line is
a project that is merged into this new one. So for example, looking at the first one, we propose
to make an "org.apache.ace.authentication" project that contains 5 existing projects. Sometimes
in the process, we need to rename or move some packages, and things like that we indicate
with an "->" arrow plus a new name or destination.
